Problems solved by technology

[0009] Systems of this type will only be effective in reducing fine dust in the environment if they are installed in a very large number of vehicles, and the expense for cleaning the multiple filters and for disposing of the collected dust will be enormous , especially since relatively coarse dust, which is not actually harmful, is also collected and the filter fills up quickly

Embodiment Construction

[0036] figure 1 The motor vehicle 1 shown has an air guiding structure downstream of each rear wheel 2 for guiding at least some of the air next to the rear wheel 2 to the dust collector. Of course, the front wheels can also or alternatively be equipped accordingly.

[0037] exist figure 1The air guide structure is an air guide plate 4 in airflow communication with the wheel housing 3 of the rear wheel 2, which can be retracted into the wheel housing 3 by preferably an electric actuator (not shown) and figure 1 There it is shown in a lowered position in which its lower edge has a relatively small distance from the road surface 5 . The raising and lowering of the air guide plate 4 can take place between two fixed end positions, but preferably also in variably selectable intermediate positions.

[0038] The air guide plate 4 guides the air of the dust discharged or entrained into the wheel housing 3 by the fully loaded motor vehicle 1 during operation. The entire inner su...

Abstract

The invention relates to a motor vehicle (1), which includes at least one air-conducting structure (10). That at least one air conducting structure (10) is arranged downstream of a vehicle wheel (2) in the direction of travel, for conducting at least some of the air in a wake of the vehicle wheel (2) to a dust collector (12). A unit is provided for automatic adjustment, in a manner depending on the speed of travel of the vehicle, of the spacing between a lower edge of the air-conducting structure (10) and a roadway surface (5) being driven over by the vehicle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a motor vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1 , having at least one air outlet arranged downstream in the direction of travel of the wheels for directing at least some of the air following the wheels to a dust collector bootstrap structure. Background technique [0002] Traffic-related particulate emissions, not caused by exhaust, but by wear of brakes, tyres, clutches, road paving, etc., and re-encrustation of road dust contribute considerably to air pollution. It is expected that exhaust particulate emissions will decrease due to strict limit values, but other traffic-related particulate emissions will increase due to greater traffic volumes and may become the focus of future regulations. Based on data from the German Federal Environment Agency, it can be expected that in 2020 exhaust particulate emissions will account for approximately 18% of all traffic-related fine dust emissions, where the term "fine dust" refers ...
